Series: Seeing Jesus

Book: John

Pastor Daniel’s sermon “Seeing Jesus – Thomas” centered on John 20:24–29 and showed that Thomas should be remembered not for his doubt, but for his powerful confession of faith: “My Lord and my God.” He explained that Thomas’s desire for proof reflects the modern struggle to believe, yet faith is ultimately a gift initiated by God rather than something people create for themselves. Pastor Daniel emphasized the importance of staying connected to the community of faith even in seasons of doubt, noting that Thomas returned to the disciples despite his questions, and there Jesus personally met him with grace and peace. The sermon highlighted that Thomas recognized Jesus not only as risen Savior but as God in the flesh, fulfilling the message of John’s Gospel that “the Word was God.” Pastor Daniel concluded by encouraging listeners to continue seeking Jesus faithfully, trusting that Christ still meets people in their uncertainty and leads them to genuine belief, just as He did with Thomas.
